[PB]

Thank you all for your generous welcome: It is most heart warming.

NBs996: I hope your knee is now fully fit - you had me worried as i read how long you were supposed to restarin from riding!

Glyn: A nice new carbon ligament sounds ideal - do I get a DSC discount

BrownRigby: Your similar 'off' sounds relatively recent, are you now OK? Hope so, and am jealous of a nice shiny new bike!

Scotty B: I will make contact following your suggestion - although I'm hoping that my knee is recovering sufficiently well not to warrant being dissected by a laser..........

Flanker: Looking forward to meeting you soon - will try to make Poole Quay on Tuesday. Where abouts do you generally tend to gather and at what time?

Oh, yes ... a little background info: My baby is a red '98 748BP: Carbon cans, braided lines, but as all the plastic needs replacing I am thinking along the lines of replica 998 fairings (being well looked after by Tony @ Two Four Italia), again in red but perhaps with some restrained personalisation. Current thinking is the white number board nose cone detail with gold line, and perhaps a french flag on the 'SPS' seat unit (I shan't mention the football.......). Any (polite...) suggestions gratefully received.

I am living in sin in Poole with my lovely girlfiend (!) who should pass her bike test, fingers crossed, in the next 12 months or so.
